My class got so excited right before lunch because it had started to snow. It actually left a dusting on cars over night. Those 6 precious children of God could not stay in their seats, they just wanted to get up and look out the window. Sad thing was by recess it had stopped....I am sure there are more days of snow to come though, this was only the first.
It was very cold today. I finally wore one of my turtle neck sweaters. I actually wore a tank top underneath the sweater, and it was sooo cold in school that I also put on a long button down sweater (it goes down to mid-thigh on me). As the day went on the snow changed to rain, you all would have gotten a kick out of me as I was walking down the street. I had on both sweaters and my Taku jacket (Praise God for REI), so the sweater hung down longer than the Taku. I was a sight, but I was warm.
I know once it gets colder my legs will be cold out walking around, since mid-thigh to my ankles were freezing. I wish I would have bought more than just one pair of the Patagonia thermals. They will be getting worn out for sure in the near future.
The good thing was that I was walking down to meet the girls I am going to Bali with. We paid for our plane tickets today. So though I was cold, I had warm thoughts of being on the beach in just a few weeks.
God used the snow today too. My class uses Our Daily Bread as part of devotions (The school gets copies written in both Korean & English). Today's ODB was titled Thankful For Seasons and we read Ecclesiastes 3:1-8. This also went along with us continually talking about sowing and reaping, especially JOY! As my class would say "PRAISE JESUS!"

Just as the winter turns to spring,
Our lives have changing seasons too;
So when a gloomy forecast comes,
Remember- God has plans for you. -Sper
Ecclesiastes 3:1
To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under Heaven.
